Commercial solar & battery systems covering the Thames Valley & Home Counties

Roof arrays, hybrid inverters and storage, designed around what the property actually uses.

Solar & Battery work by Ridgeway Electrical

Commercial arrays are specified around half-hourly consumption data, available roof load and your operational hours. We design for payback, peak shaving and a route to net zero that your accountant can follow.

What's included

  • Three-phase systems and larger roof or ground-mounted arrays
  • Half-hourly meter analysis and export optimisation
  • Battery peak-shaving to reduce demand charges
  • O&M schedule and remote monitoring setup
  • Help with EPC improvements and grant paperwork

Common questions

What payback should we expect?
Typical commercial arrays sized to on-site consumption pay back in six to nine years. We model yours from half-hourly meter data before you commit.
Will the roof take the load?
We arrange a structural assessment as part of the survey and specify ballasted, mechanically fixed or ground-mounted accordingly.
Can we reduce demand charges?
Yes — battery peak-shaving trims your highest half-hours, which often matters more than the generation itself on a capacity-based tariff.
Do you handle grants and EPC improvements?
We provide the documentation you need for grant applications and can advise how the system affects your EPC rating.

Recent work

Radstock

Roof-mounted array for a light industrial unit

Half-hourly data showed daytime demand tracking generation almost exactly. A 60 kWp array was sized to self-consumption, with battery peak-shaving added to trim capacity charges.

The modelling was honest — they told us where the numbers didn't work as readily as where they did. Two years in, we're tracking the forecast.
